Assessment task 2 - Fieldwork planning and evaluation
Task description
For this assignment you evaluate fieldwork planning and
planning artefacts for society and environment curriculum that
you will have developed collaboratively as part of the learning
sequence for this unit. It is expected that the planning will
relate to key disciplines such as history and geography as well
as the interdisciplinary areas of civics and citizenship and
global education.
Thus, Assignment 2 consists of:
1. A copy of your team’s fieldwork plans for children’s
learning as developed during the semester;
2. An individual written evaluation of this fieldwork planning
(1200 words in length)
3. References
4. Appendix (consisting of small copies of your team’s shared fieldwork planning completed during the semester along with feedback received in the online forum. Paste each of the planning artefacts into your assignment template. Evaluate your fieldwork planning and communication of it, in relation to the literature for the unit as well as any comment received on Pebble Pad (and/or Flickr as advised). You may draw upon insights from Assignment 1 also.
Background information
During the semester on campus and online students will be designated to teams for the purpose of fieldwork planning. Thus, this collaborative work will bring together on campus and online students enrolled in the unit. Each team will develop fieldwork plans and/or artefacts to upload to an ESH260 Pebble Pad (and/or Flickr) site set up for this purpose. These planning artefacts developed by each team may be uploaded for comment as they evolve through the unit. This information has the potential to be valuable for everyone working in this unit. Each member of the team is responsible for keeping their own records of any artefact developed and posted to Pebble Pad (and/or Flickr) as well as any comments posted to this site as feedback from peers. Further guidance will be offered at web conferences and other discussion sessions such as face to face and discussion board feedback.
Task length The individual written evaluation is 1200 words in length and is to be supplemented by the planning documents as outlined in the task description above.
